you can block things out.

you just stop thinkng about it. pretend it doesn't bother you and if you do it long enough it truly doesn't bother you.

but then instead of the screaming there is a negative void. that drains energy (yes it take effort to block out something) on the worst of days. eventually it festers, especially if you've been pretending there was no problem all along.

then when you run out of energy to block it out, all you have to do is let things fall apart.
